Hello there. This is Dani. I moved to the US in 2023 to work on my Phd in electrical eng. Here, I get to meet and learn from people from different races, from all over the world, with different perspectives, cultures, and mindsets. Growing up in a progressive family in a rather "traditional" country, I learned no matter the differences are we share a common language and that is our feelings, as we are all humans after all. I believe we have more in common than differences. We all want love, respect, and to be heard, and this is why I love CS community, because they know this.

I love traveling, especifically for camping and hiking in new places. I found a couple of my best friends this way. I also love to explore new cities, going to their old neighborhoods, trying new foods, bars, clubs and museums.

I'm also sporty, I enjoy swimming in the nature, hiking, and biking.

Everyone in my family except me is a professional artist, so I grow up learning about art, specially cinema and painting. I used to play piano, but now I'm really passionate about cooking.

I'm also passionate about Science, particularly electrical eng and computer science. I teach math and physics in my free times, and I also Iove to talk to people with different professions and learn about what they professionally work on.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

People on CS appreciate cultural exchange, local experiences, and meeting new people. It allow immersing myself in the local culture.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Last year, I visited Chicago for the first time, and it was an amazing experience. I spent my days biking around the city, exploring different neighborhoods. It quickly became one of my favorite adventures because I got to see so much of the city that I wouldn't have discovered otherwise. Every day, I rented a bike and rode through Lincoln Park and along Lake Michigan towards downtown. A few years ago, I also backpacked around the Middle East, which was a truly magical experience.

教，学，和分享

Life is all about learning and sharing. I'm all about learning, no matter what it is about. That is why I enjoy talking to people, because everybody has something to teach. besides that I enjoy learning by reading blogs, books, and listening to podcasts.
